SCMOL2001 Biotechnology Laboratory Techniques
This unit will introduce students to fundamental laboratory techniques used in research and industry throughout the world. Students will focus on the development of practical skills for laboratory-based work & research. Many common practical procedures will be covered with students required to be able to link their practical skill development with the underlying theoretical framework. Students will develop both a practical awareness and intellectual understanding of which techniques to apply to address a wide range of scientific questions. Analysis and communication of research data is a fundamental requirement of any scientist, in this unit students will be required to demonstrate their grasp of these abilities through interpretation and reporting of data they have generated.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
